Metatech (Ap) Inc. is managing 2 pending office actions in the Communications technology area. These actions are split between 2 distinct examiners, providing the company with multiple individual perspectives on its current applications. The involvement of 2 distinct art units further indicates that the company's intellectual property is being reviewed across different technical contexts. The busiest examiner, THOMAS, SOUMYA, is responsible for 1 pending office action, which accounts for 1 of the 2 pending office actions total.
The distribution of 2 pending office actions across 2 distinct art units suggests a diversified approach to prosecution within the Communications sector. By engaging with 2 distinct examiners, the company avoids having its current patent prospects tied to a single individual's review. Because the busiest examiner manages 1 pending office action, the workload is evenly split, ensuring that the company receives feedback from a variety of technical and administrative divisions within the patent office.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 1 (50%) |
